Amazing Grace Snoodie

Cowl/Hoodie

Amazing Grace Snoodie is the Fourth design in my Amazing Grace Series. These Free Patterns are dedicated to Breast Cancer Awareness and in memory of my Dearest Friend Sandra Kay Gilb. Also available are the Amazing Grace Prayer Shawl, Amazing Grace Hat and The Amazing Grace Headband… I hope you enjoy these patterns and have an opportunity to “Pay It Forward” by donating one of you projects to help someone who is suffering or recovering from Breast Cancer.

Row 23: Ch 1, Rev Sc across to end. Finish off. This will be the front of the hood.

Finishing off Hood

.

Fold Hood Strip in half bringing the short ends together (the short ends will be the bottom of the hood that will be sewn to cowl). With yarn needle and matching yarn, Whip stitch back of hood (the beginning chain edge) together starting at the bottom edge working towards the folded edge. This will keep the hood even on both sides.

.

Attaching the Hood

With yarn and yarn needle: Working along the bottom edge of the hood and the top of the Cowls inside edge (The back loops of the Rev Sc edging of Cowl) sew the hood into place. You will be sewing the hood base to a little more than half of the Cowl. Leaving approximately 3/8 of the Cowl open. Finish off and enjoy!!!

Hi
Thank you for all you do for all of us crocheters who can’t make our own patterns!! Thx. I need to get back to making chemo beanies to donate. I had to resort to selling on ebay, because I got laid off and there’s no big market out there for a 56 year old handicapped high risk pregnancy nurse who has to work at home even in insurance where I was laid off, so…..I did start an cancer awareness shop and make jewelry but not for that reason. I’ve lost both of my sisters to two unrelated cancers, so I can donate a portion of the sales. My first sister died from ovarian cancer 7 years ago and I could not find any support jewelry to wear, it was very frustrating, so now I just make my own in their honor. I am sorry for your loss but you do her great honor.

Thank you so much for your beautiful patterns that you have given to the public! You are so talented. May I ask what yarn you used for the Snoodie? It’s so pretty. Thank you. May God bless you for your generosity.

A Reverse Sc is simply working your single crochet in the opposite direction than the usual left… you work your stitches going to the right… So insert your hook in the first stitch to the right and continue just like a normal sc ,,, continuing in each stitch going right… It is a little tricky the first couple stitches,,, but once you do it you will see how easy it is… It creates a rope like effect for a nice finishing edge…

Yes it is 30… Not sure how I did that… lol I was trying so hard to finish typing by the last day of Oct… I just missed that… Thank you and all fixed… post your pic to my Ravelry page if you can… I would love to see it!!

Thank you for this beautiful pattern! I am making it for my mom for Christmas, beautiful stitch pattern. I am almost done with the hood part, I’m having trouble understanding where and how it attaches. Can you help?

Just sew the bottom base of the hood onto the top edge of the cowl… I stitched it in place on the inside edge of the cowl… like the back loops of the Rev Sc… You can attach at any point and sew around… It will take up a little more than half of the cowl … The part of the cowl that doesnt have the hood attached is the front… Kind of like a hoodie sweatshirt ( How the hood is attached to the sweatshirt.

This looks like a beautiful pattern! It’s my first cowl though and I seem to be having trouble with keeping it from twisting. Do you think your pattern will work if I simply go back and forth and then sew the two sides together?

I will be making this for my aunt who is suffering from advanced stage breast cancer. Thank you so much for the pattern. She has already lost all her hair and says her head and neck get quite cold at night so this is perfect for her. Thank you again

Hi, I am currently making this using a Dk weight yarn, so I went up a hook size and have kept the tension looser than I normally crochet, it measures 11 and 1/2 inches wide (23 inch circle), does that seem right? BTW Love the design

My mom was just diagnosed with stage1 uteran cancer and asked me to make a cowl for her to keep her head warm for this winter aftergoing chemo. She is going to love this so much more than just a cowl 🙂
Thank you for sharing your patterns, I love each one!

I just finished hooking up your ‘Snoodie’. I first saw it on a share from Elk Studio Crochets and fell in love. This was so easy to work up. Your directions are simple and very clear to follow. I will be completing on my Ravelry project (Rav I’d is lil4star) and adding pictures. While I am there, will be browsing for more Amazing Grace accessories. Hopefully something to use up the rest of this yarn.

Thank you so much for the Snoodie pattern. I made it and the day after I finished, I found out my friend’s sister had been diagnosed with liver cancer ao of course, it was sent to her and she loves it! I am finishing another for my 30 year old OR nurse friend who just began radiation for a brain tumor. Just
Thought you would like to know how much we appreciated your sharing this pattern for free, and to know it is going to good use. Thank you!

God Bless you for your generosity in sharing your God given talent with the rest of us. Your patterns are amazing and easy to follow. I’m a newbie to the crochet world. At 56 who would have ever thought. My friends are shaking their heads wondering if I was kidnapped by aliens. I now belong to a group of ladies who crochet projects to give to those in need. I’m going to suggest the next be for Breast cancer. It is near to me heart. My sister in law has been cancer free now for 9 years and I pray for many more. A close friend just had a double mastectomy rather than a single in hopes to prevent and ting seeking up in the future. Thanks you again for sharing your talent and creativity. Bonnie

I and many others have Trigeminal Neuralgia, a severely painful facial nerve pain disorder. Wind is a big trigger that can start the pain that is very hard to control. This hood, I am making the cowl into a longer scarf to wrap around closely, will go over hats and masks making everything look pretty and be functional. I am making one for my Valentines exchange sister warrior using lots of teal, our awareness color. Thought you would like to know the pattern is helping people with other diseases too.

I just wanted to thank you for your work and creativity. You have been blessed with a lovely gift. I knit house shoe at home and crochet prayer shawls with the ladies at church. I send the house shoes all over the world to different people who are ill. The prayer shawls are given to different people for a need, i.e. illness, grief, difficult time, and more. I really like your patterns. I am not creative in that I am able to create a unique work. I can take other ideas and change them to meet my needs. I am currently knitting a pair of house shoes for someone who needs a special pair. I adjust the length, width of the bottom, and around the top of the foot based on measurements. I have been knitting house shoes for 47 years. Thank you so much for your ideas and patterns. God Bless You. Kathy

I so love the granny square pattern on this page. Could I please have yarn color and quantities? I think it would be great as lapgans for friends (and myself) in wheelchairs. Thank you so much for all you do.

Thank you so much for the help with the yarn colors for the afghan. I plan on making my lapgans for men and women. The colors are perfect for both sexes. Thank you for your time and help. May God bless you and yours.

This is a wonderful pattern. I will be making two. One for myself and one to sell in aid of breast cancer awareness. Our Woolly Wednesday group have already raised a lot of money making a “topless” calendar for 2016, posing with our knitted and crochet projects. We range in age from our twentys to sixtys!!! We did it because one of our friends who comes to woolly Wednesday has had breast cancer and at the moment going through a hard time because of the affects of her treatment. We did it to cheer her up. She has posed for the calendar too. We had great fun doing it and have managed to raise awareness because of the publicity. I am sorry for the loss of your friend and can only hope that with enough research lives can be saved.

This is my third attempt at writing to you. The boxes should signify what is required to be filled in. Thank you for the free patterns. Amazing Grace means a lot to me as my Mum’s name is Grace and my Dad (now passed almost 2 years) used to call her Amazing Grace and is very significant to me. She has also had cancer in the mouth for 16 years and now has it in the jaw bone but it has not spread anywhere else.

I like this pattern a lot. I got the cowl done all right, I think. But the hood part (I have frogged twice already) seems to look crooked? I have the right number of shells, but it seems to be losing on one end and gaining on the other?

Hello you pattern is amazing to me, I have a question do you post on the pattern different sizes I didn see any I want to make this for adults and girls and another question is there a way I can make the cow part a little wider if so how do I do that Please
